Almost..... almost traded my M6.

I’m in a Frozen White 2016 f12 (Aragon brown) with 8k miles.
Executive, driver assist plus... the works.

Today I grew a wild hair and stopped at a local Jeep dealership. They had 3 built up Jeep Wranglers, one of which caught my attention. $50k. Long story short, sales guy got me the price I told them I’d be fine with. Looked like I would be going away from the M6 all of a sudden because I pretty much low balled them and they took it.

Then, the dealership’s Director came to talk to me and said they basically couldn’t afford to offer me fair value for my car. He admitted my car was worth around $90k but they had a max amount they can offer of $74k. He also admitted they’ve never had someone drive up in a car like that before. Sort of a too rich for our blood type of attitude.

Wondering if anyone has ever had this experience before? 🤷*♂️

Aren't you glad they couldn't "afford" to take your M6?

Hah, again it was one of those wild moments where I figured to maybe cut my monthly payment by more than half. Getting married next year so lots to pay for and will be traveling a ton, so again... just a moment of crazy.

So yes... for the most part.

It’s built up pretty nice to be honest. Guess you hate it but I thought it was pretty sweet.

this is wrong , opinion's as we all know are like assholes imo..

i like it , beefy, aggressive , sexxy but... w that being said i can and will promise ya that if ya went that route after a good 1k miles you would sorely miis the shit outve your car and immediately have massive regret.

jeeps are slow af , loud , handle like ass etxxx

i have an srt jeep w 500hp and an m5 together they are amazzzing alone they are amazzzing but if i hadda choose M5 alll day

if ya can afford a jeep on side as a grocery getter and to load kids and friends up once wile and even for coomute to work once while then Bamm great combo but do not make the mistake of dump your brand new luxory beast for a tank

Jeep looks awesome! But its no M6... I got the same response when I went to Toyota to trade my F10 M5 foe a 14 Tundra and they were like "what is it"?? How much??? They are definitely not used to seeing premium cars on the lot...

I don't think anyone buys a Jeep for the looks. Their off-road capabilities are unmatched for the price.
